Chris Lohfink commented on CASSANDRA-11483:
-------------------------------------------

I went down path a little of having old and new output... it gets kinda ugly. 
To the point it may be less horrible code wise to just make this a new tool. 
Its already pretty bad with the colors and unicode being either or.

I guess I am more in favor currently of updating the dtests instead. Which 
would be good anyway to test all the new flags. If thats Ok I can make the 
dtest patch. If we really want to support the old format (in which I assume 
would be default), Id rather just see this pushed to 4.0 or whatever version it 
would be Ok to change the output of the tool.

> sstablemetadata provides quite a bit of useful information but theres a few 
> hiccups I would like to see addressed:
> * Does not use client mode
> * Units are not provided (or anything for that matter). There is data in 
> micros, millis, seconds as durations and timestamps from epoch. But there is 
> no way to tell what one is without a non-trival code dive
> * in general pretty frustrating to parse
